Summoned to Pyeongchang-dong by In-young, Green was extremely tense. This gathering felt more critical than any formal meeting she had attended before. Sunwoo’s only request to her was to ease the minds of his maternal grandfather and mother-in-law.
After a quick hair styling session at the salon, Green hurried home and opened her closet. The clothes Hannah had chosen for her with the allowance from In-young were neatly hung up. After much deliberation, Green opted for a cream-colored semi-formal suit. She thought a conservative outfit would be appropriate for her first meeting with Park Chan-wook, similar to her engagement.
“Uh? The skirt zips up now?”
The clothes, bought by Hannah in a smaller size as a motivation to lose weight, hadn’t fit around the waist last month. The fact that they now did brought a pleased smile to her face, indicating the results of her daily exercise.
“I’ll have to brag to Hannah and get some praise!”
Feeling cheerful, Green quickly headed to Pyeongchang-dong. Arriving first, In-young was waiting for her.
“Mother, hope everything’s been well?”
“Yes.”
In-young examined Green thoroughly with a seemingly indifferent gaze. Green felt her heart racing under that scrutiny but managed to keep her composure. It felt like another test from her mother-in-law.
“Let’s go. Father is waiting.”

“Alright.”
As they entered the dining room, Park Chan-wook was seated at the table, looking at a tablet.
“Father, meeting her for the first time? This is Sunwoo’s wife, Green.”
“Hello, Grandfather. I’m Han Green.”
At Green’s greeting, Park Chan-wook slowly turned his gaze towards her. He exuded the firm will and stubbornness characteristic of a corporate chairman. Though not much resembling Sunwoo, the inscrutable, sharp look in his eyes was strikingly similar to that of his grandson.
“Come, sit down.”
In-young and Green took their seats next to Park Chan-wook. He then asked In-young,
“When did Sunwoo leave for Marseille? Has it been over a month?”
“It’s almost two months now. There were some initial struggles with the Marseille city officials.”
Park Chan-wook nodded slowly, then suddenly turned to Green.

“Do you talk to Sunwoo often?”
“No.”
Green answered immediately, intimidated by his piercing gaze. Park Chan-wook nodded slowly again and then picked up his spoon.
“Let’s eat.”
Silence prevailed at the table. Green, having lost her appetite, chewed her food meticulously to avoid indigestion.
“In-young, I heard Han Moon-taek managed to avoid bankruptcy again.”
“Yes, I’ve heard the rumors too.”
Near the end of the meal, when her father Han Moon-taek’s topic arose, Green almost dropped her chopsticks. She had been deliberately avoiding news of her father since the wedding.
“Funding came from Miyeon Construction and Narae Food. The younger son of Narae has a keen interest in politics.”
“Hmph, seems like he’s reaping the benefits of being your in-law. Green, did you know about this?”

Park Chan-wook knew how the marriage was arranged, so Green answered honestly.
“I didn’t know. I haven’t been in contact with my father since the wedding.”
Park Chan-wook probed further.
“Not talking to your husband, and cutting off your father, you must be quite lonely these days.”
At that moment, Green’s expression hardened. She was tired of being cautious all the time.
“I think it’s something I have to endure. I agreed to this marriage with Sunwoo, knowing what it entailed, and I promised Mother-in-law to cut off contact with my father. I will be as careful as possible not to cause any trouble to the in-law family.”
“Is that so?”
“I think I have to endure it. I knew the nature of this marriage, agreed with Sunwoo, and also promised my mother-in-law. I decided to cut off contact with my birth father. I’ll be as careful as I can to not cause trouble to my in-laws.”
“Is that so?”
Park Chan-wook looked at Green as if she were a naive child, then suddenly asked her to leave.
“You may go now. I need to talk with In-young.”

Without waiting for Green’s response, he got up and went to his study. Green, looking at In-young for guidance, asked,
“Did I make a mistake with Grandfather?”
“No. That’s enough for today. I’ll contact you soon through Secretary Na.”
“I have a request, Mother. Could I know about the gatherings a bit earlier? The preparation time is always so rushed.”
“You did well despite the rush.”
In-young’s lips showed a faint smile, which disappeared quickly, but Green didn’t notice, disappointed at the thought of always preparing at the last minute.
“From now on, I’ll make sure to contact you at least a week in advance.”
“Really? Thank you, Mother.”
“Like now, if you’re uncomfortable, speak up. I won’t know if you keep it to yourself.”
“Yes, I will.”

As a smile of relief spread on Green’s face, a brief warmth flickered and then disappeared in In-young’s eyes.
After sending Green away, In-young went to the study where Park Chan-wook was waiting.
“She looks quite pretty. Acts obedient but seems to have a stubborn streak.”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
